Migrating users and groups from CQ 5.5 to AEM 6.1

[Kkkrish]

Is there any best practices that needs to be taken care for the user/groups migration from CQ5.5 to AEM 6.1?

Hi 

Have you checked "ACL Packager".

Link:- https://adobe-consulting-services.github.io/acs-aem-commons/features/acl-packager.html

It can help you set ACL permissions and users/groups between AEM instances.

        In order to solve the above problem, we are still going to use package manager. Follow the steps below:
        Create a package and put all the users & their groups.
        Exclude few users & groups :
        admin & administrative anonymous (not necessary but good to keep it excluded)
        If same user & group are found in both environments;  delete from AEM 6 instance before installing 5.6 user package. You should ignore admin & anonymous here too
        Install it
        To verify your accounts, login with any of your group. Also you can verify logged-in users privileges.
